Pics & Questions for a 20 CC I'm looking at

Nice boat. I've had bildge pumps stolen, and even wire torn out, but hatch covers? Unless you have a boat pretty much like it, what could you do with hatch covers. I don't think that boat is suppose to sit that low in the water, but maybe it doesn't. My eyes aren't that great, but looking at the 3rd to last picture, where you can see the whole transom, it looks to me like it sat deeper in the water on the port side. If the boat was moored next to shore or a bank and at low tide, sits on the bottom, it could lean to the port and cause that line to be highter. There's a sailboat in my canal that does just that, but when it's floating, it's higher and level. Worth asking about before driving that distance. Good Luck.

CaptMin - good call, the grime line does not look that consistent around the hull...

thanks...

Hey John, that looks like just what you were looking for.I wouldn't worry too much about that slime line, it could be a result of anything.Even pulling it out on the trailer on a particularly slimy day, and then not washing it will leave a weird looking "water line".
You see plenty of them with 200's, a lot of power yes but not too much (is there such a thing).
The only fly in the ointment is the 1000 miles,that is a serious road trip - where the hell is this thing? I guess only you can decide if it's worth the trip, and the price could affect your decision.But you have the hatch problem solved, so what are the odds that a guy at this very site (all of 1 month old), has the hatches you need, and he just so happens to be redoing his boat, and NOT USING THE ORIGINAL HATCHES? Damn John, if that ain't some funky mojo, cosmic fate, turn of events then I don't know what is.Maybe the boat gods are answering your prayers - I don't think you have a choice, get a full tank of gas,half pack of cigarettes,put your shades on and get going!

I agree with Billy Bob, very well said as well Bill!! I just wish I could join on the trip. Nothing beats a road trip. Particularly when a SeaCraft is at the end. You better be on your way!!!. [img]images/icons/grin.gif[/img]

Haaa, haaaa, haaaa....

OK - I'll be a little circumspect in case the current owner(s) or aquaintances have found this site (ClassicContender.com)...

Steve - you're way high on the price

For arguments sake, we'll say the asking price was in the mid 4K range before the thefts... The trip is a little under 1000 miles each way - a lot closer to FLA than the Ditch...Buckeys - is that just resident only on the run?

Billybob - I quit smoking too [img]images/icons/shocked.gif[/img] [img]images/icons/rolleyes.gif[/img] [img]images/icons/mad.gif[/img] tough on the Roadtrip

Trayder - is that an offer to make a journey? I don't think I'll have a problem finding a victim - err, volunteer I mean, but I'm thinking of a one day Bronco dash then crash at the local Salt-Air Motel then hitch up the next am, grab a spare trailer wheel & tire and return...

Ya'll remember when Misters Bradshaw & Tillis loaded up for the Cannonball Run, right? 24 cases of beer and a bag of chips? Nahhh - just kiddin' I don't drink when I fish and I don't have more than three if I'm driving more than a mile [img]images/icons/cool.gif[/img] ,
